Brown adipose tissue and regulation of human body weight
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Diabetes/Metabolism Research and Reviews"
DOI: 10.1002/dmrr.3594
Abstract: Approximately 30% of the global population is affected by obesity. Traditional non‐surgical measures for weight loss have limited efficacy and tolerability. Therefore, there is a need for novel, effective therapies. Brown adipose tissue (BAT) has… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jcsm.12881
Abstract: Brown adipose tissue (BAT) has been primarily researched as a potential target for mitigating obesity. However, the physiological significance of BAT in relation to cachexia remains poorly understood. The objective of this study was to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/lipd.12358
Abstract: Although it is well established that glucocorticoids inactivate thermogenesis and promote lipid accumulation in interscapular brown adipose tissue (IBAT), the underlying mechanisms remain unknown. We found that dexamethasone treatment (1 mg/kg) for 7 days in rats decreased… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/mrm.29707
Abstract: PURPOSE Activated brown adipose tissue (BAT) enhances lipid catabolism and improves cardiometabolic health. Quantitative MRI of the fat fraction (FF) of supraclavicular BAT (scBAT) is a promising noninvasive measure to assess BAT activity but suffers… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/oby.22062
Abstract: Human brown adipose tissue (BAT) activity decreases with age and obesity. In addition to uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1), several genetic markers of BAT in humans have been published. However, the link between human BAT activity… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/164_2018_123
Abstract: Brite/brown adipose tissue (BAT) is a thermogenic tissue able to dissipate energy via non-shivering thermogenesis. It is naturally activated by cold and has been demonstrated to increase thermogenic capacity, elevate energy expenditure, and to ultimately… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/164_2018_137
Abstract: Historically, brown adipose tissue has been elusive and not easy to detect, hence its relative obscurity in human physiology until its rediscovery in 2009. At that point, it was proven that the symmetrical artefacts frequently… read more here.
